"Still upset about what happened today?"
Cassian stepped out of the bathroom and saw Margot sitting on the edge of the bed, lost in thought. Without thinking, he walked over and patted her shoulder, leaning down slightly.
Margot lifted her head and was immediately greeted by the fresh scent of his body wash. Her attention shifted in an instant. She looked up at him and shook her head. "I'm not exactly sad, just... confused. After all these years, we have a son now, and your parents clearly adore him. So why do they still have such a problem with me? If it's really just because of what happened on the yacht back then..."
Margot couldn't wrap her head around it. Their relationship had grown strong, they had a child together, and by all logic, his parents should have accepted her by now.
